Fresh Apple Cake

It has been very cold here and Leonard came in from outside and asked me if I would bake him one of my Fresh Apple Cakes, it really sounded pretty good to me to. Would you like a piece of cake and a cup of tea? I will just sit down and have a piece with you.

From Miz Helen's Kitchen Table Cookbook

11/2 cups oil

2 cups sugar

3 cups flour

2 cups fresh peeled graded apples

4 eggs

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 1/2 teaspoon soda dissolved in a little water

1 cup pecans chopped

With a mixer, mix the sugar, flour, oil, eggs one at a time, and the peeled graded apples. Mix in the salt, cinnamon, vanilla and the soda dissolved in water. Fold in 1 cup chopped pecans. Pour into a greased and floured 9X13 baking dish. Bake 350 degrees 40 to 50 minutes. While cake is still hot, pierce the cake gently with a fork and pour the cooled glaze over the cake.

Glaze

1 cup orange juice

1 cup sugar

Zest of 1 orange

Boil the above mixture until the sugar is dissolved. Cool and pour over hot cake

The longer this cake sits the more moist it is. We like to serve it with a bit of whipped cream or a dip of Blue Bell.

Enjoy!

I sure am glad you came by today you got here just in time for the cake. Now stay warm and be careful on these wet roads. Have a great week and come back to see us real soon!

What is it about Apple Cake and cool weather that just seem to go together. Your recipe looks wonderful and I also have apples that need using and heaven knows I have the cool (cold) weather. Thanks, I'll have Blue Bell with mine please.

Miz Helen! I have been seeing your recipes everywhere. They must be good :) This cake grabbed my attention. It looks wonderful- I plan to take some time this week to try my hand at converting it to Gluten Free :)I wanted to personally invite you to participate in a Weekly Event I Host titled Seasonal Sundays! And.. now that I know about it- Ill be sure to come back next week for Full Plate Thursdays! xo, Brittany
